IMF, 2018
Aperçu
Global coordinated economic growth is the story of 2018.
Recommendation
This detailed and discerning look at the world economy from the IMF notes that global GDP gained steam in 2017, continuing the momentum that started in the middle of 2016. With a weak inflationary environment persisting across the advanced countries, the potential exists for further economic strengthening coming from increased investment, elevated consumer confidence and significant stimulus from the US tax cuts. But risks, as always, accompany the previews for 2018 and 2019. getAbstract recommends this insider’s report to executives, investors and economists.
